Roof replacement

Permits, decking condition, ventilation and local wind, fire or energy rules are checked before a new roof is specified.

What this covers

Full tear-off and reroofing with asphalt shingles, tile or metal, including underlayment and ventilation.

Before the roofer arrives

• Stay off the roof, especially when it is wet, icy or after a storm.
• Put buckets under drips and move belongings and electronics away from wet ceilings.
• Photograph damage inside and, from the ground, outside — useful for an insurance claim.
